The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX450-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 450mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ125X450-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the end position without swapping out the unit. The integrated adjustment screw provides a usable travel window of 430-450mm, letting you dial in the retract distance precisely during commissioning or product changeovers. Built with an extruded aluminum barrel and a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod, it delivers 6136N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
This 125mm bore model is configured with PT tapered port threads and lacks a piston magnet, meaning position sensing via CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches is not supported on this specific variant. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the travel end and deceleration point alongside the air cushions; it does not lock or hold the load without continuous live air pressure. For applications requiring position holding, a SAIL pneumatic lock or external rod lock is necessary.

Dial in the 430-450mm travel window during format changes on packaging lines without replacing the cylinder or adding external stops.
Fine-tune the retract stroke at commissioning to absorb mechanical variances and achieve precise positioning of heavy 125mm bore loads.
Leverage 6136N of pull force at 0.5 MPa to push or pull heavy pallets, using the rear adjuster to set exact stop locations.
Select this 125mm bore cylinder when your application requires high thrust—delivering 6136N of pull force at 0.5 MPa—combined with a need for exact end-position tuning. If you need slightly less force, stepping down to an 80mm bore yields 2268N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable stroke is ideal for variable end stops and machine setup changes, whereas a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder is better suited for applications with rigid, unchanging travel requirements. Because the stroke is 450mm, you must use an external guide to prevent excessive side loading on the rod and thread.
To ensure exact ISO 15552 dimensional interchangeability, match the 125mm bore, 450mm nominal stroke, 20mm adjustment range, PT G1/2 port threads, and the absence of a magnet. Note that the SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, intentionally omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets. The rear stopper and air cushions only manage travel end deceleration, so never rely on them to hold a load; use a SAIL or BSAI cylinder for clamp-lock functionality.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125mm bore cylinder provides 6136N of pull force and 8590N of push force. It can reach a maximum push force of 11045N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you trim the effective travel back by up to 20mm, creating a usable stroke window of 430-450mm. This allows for precise end-position tuning without swapping the cylinder, though it only stops the travel and does not lock the load.
